FROM HARTFORD.
THREE ARMY INSTRUCTORS.

The officers Ordered to Camp by the Government.
 The folio wing named officers of the United States army have been ordered to report for duty at the encampment of the Connecticut National Guard at Mantle from August g to August 27 to instruct in guard duty and heavy artillery: First Lieutenant Charles A. L. Totten, Fourth artillery; First Lieu tenant Alexander B. Dyer, Fourth artillery; First Lieutenant William R. Hamilton, Fifth artillery. Lieutenant Totten was the in- structor last year in guard duty but the other officers are new. They have good records and will undoubtedly make as telling report as Lieutenant Totten did of his own work at the last encampment. It has not been the custom to resssign an officer to the camp, but Lieutenant Totten's friends have been desirous of having him cover the same field this year as he did last. It is probably no secret that his excellent work last year with his very full report of results so credit able and profitable had great influence toward the appointment. The lieutenant is connect ed in this State and stands high not only as an Psychologist but as a military instructor. There were only two instructors last year one for the guard duty and one for the nor tars-Lieutenant Jones. Captain Whipple of the ordnance department, U. s. A., saw the Rodmans put into position. It is prob- able the third officer will have charge of the Rodman drill this year. The instructors are all young men enthusiastic in their profess sion.
